Good to know before you go
Leaving Ao Nang
Ao Nang is the busiest beach town on the Krabi coast and the easiest place to stay if you want boats to Railay, Koh Phi Phi and the Hong islands. Ferries leave from Nopparat Thara Pier at the western end of the beach, and longtail boats to Railay leave straight from the sand.
Most Ao Nang tickets include a free shared pick-up from your hotel to Nopparat Thara. Be in the lobby 30 minutes before the time on the ticket.
Arriving in Rassada Pier (Phuket)
Rassada is where most big ferries leave Phuket for Koh Phi Phi, Krabi and Koh Lanta. It is a working port with ticket counters, a waiting hall and food stalls, about 10 minutes from Phuket Town.
Arrive 45 minutes early in high season (November–April): the queue for luggage tags and the boarding gate moves slowly.
Weather and season
Best November to April, when the sea is calm. From May to October the south-west monsoon brings swells; big ferries keep running but many speedboat island-hops stop.
